Battle of who do you want to give all your usage data to so they spam you with ads?

There’s a reason why they’re cheap, never used Walmart ones but the Amazon tablets required extra fees just to not be a permanent billboard on the lock screen.

Man, what if our whole world is actually looking out through an eternal bubble in God’s great bong though?

My most recent one didn’t have a number. Maybe just someone pointing out open sign up instances to banish? Haven’t bothered to look too far.

Ah, see that’s where not reading is a problem. Just saw star link competitor and remembered something a recently about China looking to launch a similar system.

Odd they would phrase it as a ‘starlink competitor’ then though rather than ‘a new ISP bid’. Wireless systems with directional antenna relays are not really new, not sure if any use laser particularly but the concept is essentially the same.

Yeah, more thinking the wasted time, resources, and emissions involved in building, launching, managing, and then whenever makes it down.

Take all that and make something useful instead, whatever happened to Google fiber being built out all over? More reliable, faster, doesn’t involve sending piles of redundant satellites into space…

Yay, more space junk, and knowing Google they would abandon the whole thing a couple years in when it gets boring and leave them to rot.

Edit:not actually sat, which makes it weird to call a ‘starlink competitor’ then, but I don’t write the headlines.

You’ve been around here long enough to know that ‘neolib’ gets thrown out for anyone this side of Stalin. Trying to equate the term with these sociopaths isn’t going to work.

Oh yeah, very liberal there with the whole demanding people conform to their ways, controlling women’s bodies, declaring DEI and the very concept of large swaths of the LGBT invalid, deporting everyone not white and Christian they can…

Totally owning those shitlibs am so right?
